Can't Change Skin

[FeelsBadMan]

I want to change my skin but it keeps going back to the combine soldier. How do I fix it?

While in game, press the ` or ~ key, at the bottom of the console box enter the line below:
cl_playermodel models/humans/Group03/Male_01.mdl

You can change the 01 at the end to whatever you want, up to 09 I believe.

If you are playing at a server that is running the model changer, like mine:
Type !model into chat and press esc. you will then have a menu to change it.

Every once and a while your model wil reset itself, if you want to you can bind the above line to a key. So, when it does, you can just press one key to change your model.

To bind it to F4 for example enter this line into your console:
bind F4 cl_playermodel models/humans/Group03/Male_01.mdl

There are only two spaces in that line of code, before and after the F4...just copy and paste it...

Let me know if that helps or if you have more questions...good luck!

The other chap forgot to put the " in
To bind a key for switching to a model in console type.

bind "f3" "cl_playermodel models/combine_super_soldier.mdl"
and for rebel.
bind "f4" "cl_playermodel models/humans/Group03/Male_01.mdl"

those quotes are there if you open the cfg file and look at them...not needed if you are doing it through the console.
It will work either way though.

While in the main menu go to 'options' and at the top click on the 'keyboard' tab. Towards the bottom of the options box there should be a button that says 'Advanced...', click it and then check in the box that says 'Enable developer console (~). Press ok and apply. To access console in the main menu or in-game just press the tilde key (~).

All the above options work just sharing what I do

Add this to autoexec.cfg

alias "Rebels" "cl_playermodel models/humans/group03/female_04.mdl;JOINTEAM 3"
alias "combine" "cl_playermodel models/police.mdl;jointeam 2"

Then in config.cfg

bind "F1" "rebels"
bind "F2" "combine"
bind "F3" "spectate"

Makes it easier to swap teams if needed and rejoin the game if in spectate.

Since SPECTATE is already a command in source engine there is no need for an alias.
